   You can't. Like the Logging System the Identity System still needs improvement. Right now it will always auto-connect to a new connection with your first identity.
   Unfortunately you cannot arrange your identities so you have to edit the connection afterwards and assign another identity with either the i button in the lower right corner or the inspector:

   What could should get improved in the Identity System?
   - let us arrange identities and nicknames
   - let us assign a preferred nickname for a connection, so we don't need to setup one identity for every connection (which is the whole point in this, one would think)
   - sorting nicknames after authentication passwords is pointless and should get removed.

   There's a lot more I'd like to see ;)

   Yes, you can™.

   Select a connection in the sidebar, edit it with the inspector (the pen icon will open the identity panel). You can select the identity you want to use on that connection there - it is marked with a red shadow.

   You can list your favorite nicknames for that identity. They will be used in order of appearance in the list.

   Regards,

   That's what she said.

   You didn't read my post, did you?

   nl is right, you can set a preferred name the way he described.

   You want the default nickname for any new connection to be reassignable.

   Small but important difference I think.
